Arthur Hayes’s family office issues bullish calls on CARDS, setting a target price of $4, and expresses optimism about the explosive growth of on-chain tokenized Pokémon cards.

Arthur Hayes’ family office Maelstrom has released a deep research report on Collector Crypt, a Solana ecosystem-based physical card trading platform, setting a target price of $4 for its CARDS token by the end of summer. According to GMGN data, CARDS is currently priced at $0.272, with a market capitalization of approximately $550 million. The on-chain tokenized Pokemon card market has seen explosive growth in recent months: gacha sales of the top seven platforms hit $230 million in May, up over 10x from $32 million in the same period last year. The core driver is the gacha mechanism: users spend funds to obtain random card-back NFTs, simulating the physical pack-opening experience while providing instant liquidity. Collector Crypt founder Tuom Holmberg previously revealed that gacha contributes 90% to 95% of the company’s business, and the platform has accumulated over $1 billion in total sales in 18 months since launch. Last year, the global physical card market reached $15.8 billion, and is projected to expand to $23.5 billion by 2030. Despite the fading of the crypto NFT boom, tokenization technology is reemerging as a key infrastructure for the card speculation market.

Tongyi Qianwen has released its first native language world model, Qwen-AgentWorld.

According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, the Qwen team today officially launched Qwen-AgentWorld — the first native language world model that sets environment modeling as a training objective from the continued pre-training phase, rather than an after-the-fact adaptation of a general large language model. The model covers seven domains under a unified framework: text-based environments (MCP, Search, Terminal, SWE) and GUI-based environments (Web, OS, Android). Trained on over 10 million real-world interaction trajectories via three stages — CPT → SFT → RL — it enables cross-domain knowledge transfer. Also open-sourced simultaneously is the AgentWorldBench evaluation benchmark, with each test sample paired with observation data collected from real environment executions. Both the model and the benchmark are now available on Hugging Face and ModelScope. In the AgentWorldBench evaluation, Qwen-AgentWorld-397B-A17B achieved the highest overall simulation quality, outperforming GPT-5.4, Claude Opus 4.8, and Gemini 3.1 Pro. The research team also explored two application paths for world modeling in agent training: First, as a decoupled environment simulator, controllable simulated reinforcement learning (RL) can shape agent behavior and significantly outperforms RL trained exclusively in real environments. Second, as a unified agent base model, LWM warm-up training can be transferred to multi-turn agent tasks across seven benchmarks, three of which are not included in the training set at all, and no RL fine-tuning for agent tasks is required. The work preliminarily validates the potential of language world models as stronger foundational models for agents.

South Korea has transferred around 40 unregistered virtual asset service providers to law enforcement authorities.

According to the Financial Intelligence Analysis (FIU) under South Korea’s Financial Services Commission (FSC), around 40 unregistered virtual asset service providers have been reported to law enforcement authorities. Under South Korea’s Specific Financial Information Act, platforms operating crypto asset businesses in South Korea must obtain an Information Security Management System (ISMS) certification and complete registration with the FIU; overseas platforms serving South Korean users are also subject to these rules. Unregistered platforms are not covered by regulations such as the Virtual Asset User Protection Act, leaving users at risk of personal data leaks, hacking, fund misappropriation, and operator exit scams, with difficulties in pursuing claims and recovering losses if incidents occur. Additionally, the FIU disclosed various typical violations, including attracting South Korean users via channels like Telegram and KakaoTalk while deliberately omitting Korean language services to evade regulation, and private money exchange institutions providing stablecoin-fiat currency conversion services to groups such as international students and foreign workers. The FIU will continue to partner with relevant agencies to step up crackdowns on illegal crypto asset businesses and expand joint investigations and regular monitoring mechanisms.
